Catching predatory fish species with wobblers is very popular in our country. There are a huge number of options for this fishing tackle. There are expensive and high-quality options, and on the contrary, there are quite cheap ones, but their quality is such that, unfortunately, it leaves much to be desired.
When we talk about products that are made in China, what comes to mind is that such fishing gear will be budget, but is unlikely to be of good quality. Perhaps there may have been reasons for this in past years, but with the advent of TSUYOKI brand wobblers, everything is completely different.
At first, the situation was that this company produced copies of high-quality wobblers from world-famous manufacturers. But, gradually, she moved on. The level of quality of its products is such that, in fact, these fishing tackles are almost a complete replacement for branded products, but at budget prices.
In addition, by expanding its production, this company is developing new types of products, sometimes offering varieties of wobblers that have not yet begun to be produced by the brand companies themselves. This makes TSUYOKI a high-quality and inexpensive replacement for well-known branded products. Many fishermen who use them speak highly of these products.
About company
Despite first impressions, this company is not entirely Chinese. The production of wobblers itself is located in China (and not only in this country), but the company’s management works in Moscow.
from the Russian Federation is the owner of the TSUYOKI brand. It should be noted that this company, before producing its products, spent a lot of time studying various potential options for what its wobblers would be.
Experts not only directly from this company, but also external experts have done a lot of work on developing and testing their various types. Products are made from the most modern materials using modern high-tech equipment.
Wobblers that are manufactured by this company belong to economy class products. Moreover, if we consider it from the perspective of the price-quality ratio, then these products occupy the best position in relation to their competitors.
Let us tell you in more detail about the products of this company. Wobblers are produced, which can be divided into eight main groups:
- Cranky,
- Poppers,
- Minnow,
- Rattlins,
- Shads,
- Sticks,
- Composers,
- Walkers.
If we talk about the total number of models produced, then their number exceeds one and a half hundred varieties. Wobblers are available in various modifications.
Among them:
- Drowning,
- The ones that float
- With neutral buoyancy.
You can also note a large range of colors. It includes more than 150 different colors. It is interesting to note that since the beginning of work under this brand, more than two thousand varieties of TSUYOKI wobblers have been produced.
At the moment, the company is not directly involved in retail sales. She sells goods in batches that cost at least 10,000 rubles, only to wholesalers.
She has a website, access to an order on which can only be obtained after moderation. An order is placed there, which will be delivered either directly or with the help of one or another transport company.
Wobblers Tsueki
Many buyers do not like China at all as a country of origin, but the Tsuyeki brand has completely dispelled this stereotype. This company produces economy-class wobblers; their product has proven itself very well both among amateur spinning anglers and among specialists in this field.
The product catalog of the Tsueki brand is quite wide; in their arsenal there are very successful copies of well-known manufacturers, as well as original models of wobblers of their own production.
All produced models of wobblers from Tsueki can be divided into the following types:
- poppers;
- cranks;
- rattlins;
- minnow;
- shads;
- compilers;
- sticks;
- walkers.
In terms of buoyancy, wobblers have three modifications:
- drowning;
- floating;
- suspenders.
The color range is also pleasantly surprising; at the moment it includes more than 150 different colors, which allows you to use Tsueki wobblers for catching almost all types of freshwater fish.
The manufacturer of Tsueki wobblers has only recently entered the market, but the quality of its products has allowed it to quickly become a leader. The variety of models and their modifications will not leave any fisherman indifferent. Let's look a little more closely at some of the baits.
Take a look at the article about Usami wobblers, a famous Japanese manufacturer of fishing products.
Wobbler Tsueki Draga
Wobbler Draga from Tsueki is a good clone of Balisong from Deps.
Here are its characteristics:
- length 130 mm;
- weight 23.4 g;
- depth up to 1.2 m;
- noise
This model of the Minnow type wobbler is quite large; according to its modification, it is divided into two types:
- suspender;
- floating.
When twitching, the suspender cuts the water quite widely, making several quiet oscillations around its axis, which is a classic for catching pike when twitching. According to many experts in this field, the game of this wobbler from Tsueki is no different from the original model.
The floating Balliston literally has plug buoyancy, which can be attributed rather to its disadvantages. Because, to drive this wobbler to a depth of at least 0.5 m, you need wiring with a non-stop twitch.
This can only attract an active pike, and the wiring itself is quite tiring; with a minimal pause, the original is immediately thrown up.
The clone does not float up so quickly, which characterizes it from the best side, because the Dredge from Tsueki can be carried out with a calmer retrieve and at a meter depth, which immediately significantly expands its capabilities.
The Tsueki Draga wobbler is an excellent clone with good characteristics, more suitable for catching pike.
Wobbler Tsueki Watson
The test specimen of the Tsueki Watson wobbler, according to spinners, showed only its best performance during testing. Brand lures Rudra and Balisong are left far behind in terms of fishing efficiency.
The main difference between the Watson clone is its slow ascent from the water column, which allows it to attract the attention of more fish.
Tsueki Watson is available in a variety of colors and has the following characteristics:
- wobbler length 128 mm;
- weighs 24 g;
- suspender;
- noise;
- minnow.
This wobbler is perfect for long-distance casting, as it has two magnetic balls, which not only weigh down the fish, but also additionally create noise to attract predators.
This model is also interesting because with the help of fittings (winding rings, tees) you can adjust its weight, and this will have virtually no effect on the performance of the wobbler in the water.
For Watson, twitching wiring is more suitable; the action of the wobbler will be effective both with smooth pulls and with short sharp jerks with the rod.
It goes deep to a maximum of 1.5 meters, here the thickness of the cord and the position of the spinning rod when wiring will play a big role.
Wobbler Tsueki Watson perfectly attracts pike.
Wobbler Tsueki Chance
An excellent quality copy of Chance Tsueki, which is very reminiscent of the OSP wobbler from Rudra.
Basic indicators:
- weight 21 g;
- length 130 mm;
- noise
This Minnow type model is presented in two modifications:
- floating;
- slowly sinking.
Tsueki's chance works great in shallow depths and is simply irreplaceable when water floods the grass. The presence of five magnetic balls allows the wobbler to easily overcome thirty-meter casts, and the additional noise from them perfectly attracts medium-sized pike and large perch.
Hard and light twitching will allow the wobbler to show all its capabilities. But it’s worth experimenting and conducting Chance more evenly. This is how it will be possible to study his own game, which can attract fish even if there is no bite.
Thanks to the wide variety of colors, Chance from Tseuki is perfect for spinning in early spring, hot summer and even late autumn.
This model can be deepened to a maximum of no more than one meter, and up to one and a half meters by trolling.
Wobbler Tsueki Mover
The Tsueki Mover bait belongs to the group of big minnow wobblers, which is gaining increasing popularity among spinners working on large bodies of water and wanting to catch a large aquatic predator.
This wobbler is a copy of the famous Pointer 100 from Lucky Craft and has the following characteristics:
- weight 26 g;
- length 128 mm;
- noise;
- suspender.
The mower easily flies over long distances when casting thanks to a system of magnetic balls located in the body of the fish. Also, the balls will create additional noise as they move along a special channel, which helps attract more attention from the pike.
For this model, it is better to use a twitch, since it is a hard type; during jerks it behaves much more lively than the original and creates more noise attractive to fish. Uniform wiring will allow the wobbler to cast its tail even wider and scour from side to side in search of a catch.
During pauses, the bait may oscillate slightly and emerge, which will interest the predator even more.
Tsueki Mover works most successfully at depths from 0.8 to 1.8 meters. The variety of colors allows you to use the bait throughout the spinning season from early spring to late autumn.
On our website you will find articles about wobblers from different brands. Look at the catalog of Bandit wobblers.
Budget alternative to the original "Japanese"
Can we consider that wobblers of this brand are a quality product that is effective in catching fish or are they just a cheap copy of well-known brands? If we talk about prices, then, of course, we are talking about budget purchases. However, the quality of TSUYOKI is quite high and reviews from fishermen say that they provide a good catch.
Of course, there may be certain shortcomings in their manufacture. For example, some note that sometimes fishing hooks are not strong enough. Sometimes there may be minor mechanical defects, such as minor chips.
However, they are easily eliminated. In the first case, you need to change the hook to a stronger one, and in the second case, you need to glue this place with special glue. However, they are popular and have good reviews from those who fish with them.
Rating of the best TsuYoki wobblers
Let's talk about some models that are widely known and popular.
TsuYoki Rodger
This model is thirteen centimeters long. Its weight is 20 grams. It is worth noting that this model is a copy of the Japanese Orbit model, which is not available in this length. That is, TsuYoki released its own special version of the famous model.
It was this length that was in demand by fishermen, but it was produced by a Chinese company. This model offers several bright “acid” colors, which are very effective when catching, for example, pike.
Watson 130
Its length is 128 millimeters, weight - 24 grams. At first, the company offered fishermen a test copy of this brand. In tests, it showed better effectiveness than the branded brands “rudra” and “balisong”. In the water, this model was distinguished by the fact that it floated up slowly.
This limits casting time. At the start of production, the weight of this model was slightly increased to achieve neutral buoyancy. Generally speaking, the buoyancy of the bait can be changed using the accessories available on the wobbler. There is also a special system for long-distance casting, which uses two metal balls for this. If you use uniform wiring, then the wobbler’s play is somewhat sluggish.
Draga size 130 (SP)
This clone is exactly like its prototype from ]Deps[/anchor]. Is very effective. Owner hooks (tees) are placed on it, which are highly durable.
When using it, it will be very effective to use slack wiring. Moreover, it is interesting to note that the original wobbler has insufficiently strong hooks, while the Chinese clone is superior to it in this regard.
Draga130 (F)
Its weight is 23 grams. The original model has high buoyancy. This, unfortunately, limits its effectiveness. When using it, it is fast wiring that will be effective, and this requires solid physical training. And the Chinese clone corrected this drawback - its buoyancy became much less. In turn, this improved the performance of the bait.
MOVER128 (SP) by Tsuyoki
The weight of this wobbler is 26 grams. Fishing with its help occurs at a depth of one and a half meters. When moving, the bait is scattered widely to the sides. Owner tees are used as hooks here.
HARD-130 (SP)
It weighs 13.5 grams. Effective when fishing for pike. Attracts both with its size and good game.
GERA-130 (SP)
The weight is slightly less than other models - it is 20 grams. It is a copy of the original Japanese minnow wobbler (called FeedContactNode -130). Both the original and the clone have a special system designed for long-distance casting. The clone has a more lively game compared to the original.
TsuYoki DUST 115 (SP)
It's quite light. Its weight is 16.5 grams. This is a copy of the very popular but rare original Japanese wobbler "K1MinnowHime" from a company called "HMKL", which is usually sold in the Japanese domestic market. A distinctive feature is the flat sides. Used for fishing at a depth of about 1 meter.
DRON 125 (F)
His appearance is easily recognizable - he has a hump on his back. Weighs 22.5 grams. It is used at a depth of approximately 80 centimeters. Unfortunately, it has smaller hooks than are appropriate for its size. It is better to change them when purchasing. Effective for shallow water fishing.
MOVER-100 (SP)
A copy of the Pointer100 brand from a company called "Lucky Craft". Compared to the original model, the clone behaves much more lively.

Tsueki's company produces copies of wobblers produced by famous brands and original baits. Having looked through the catalog of its products, you will be pleasantly surprised, because there are so many minnows, shads, compounds, walkers, poppers, cranks and sticks in it that it’s simply dizzying. Of course, it is impossible to understand the features of all baits, so we bring to your attention a brief overview of the most popular models.

Chance 130SP is a shallow-water wobbler. Its length is 13 centimeters, so the degree of buoyancy can be described as neutral. The weight of the bait is approximately 20 grams, which provides it with good flight qualities. Designed for twitching fishing. An interesting feature is that this wobbler is able to play independently. This allows it to be used for uniform wiring. In a similar situation in a body of water where there is no current, it can deepen to a maximum of a meter. The main catch of fishermen who choose the Chance 130SP is perch and pike. The bait is inexpensive - only $5.
Wobbler Watson 130F has a built-in magnetic system, which allows you to achieve the greatest efficiency when casting and has its own game. Despite this, it was designed for twitching, so it has good responsiveness and is easy to control. The bait can be submerged to a depth of up to one and a half meters; it is especially loved by pike. The average cost is 6-7 USD.
If you need a wobbler for jerking retrieves, then the Sprat 105F should do the trick. It is superficial, so the maximum depth is only half a meter. Most often, this bait is used by fishermen who prefer to catch pike in shallow water or in those parts of the reservoir where underwater thickets are visible closer to the surface. This wobbler is not good at long-distance flight, so it is more rational to use it for close-range fishing. It is, however, inexpensive - 3 dollars.
The Mason 80F wobbler can be described as a cross between a minnow and a shad, but at the same time it took only the best from both lures. The presented wobbler is suitable for twitching and can go down to 0.5 meters. The manufacturer has equipped it with a noise system. According to fishermen's reviews, the model is not bad for catching medium-sized pike and perch, and its purchase will cost about 3 dollars.
Draga 130SP is a wobbler belonging to the big minnow class. Having a mass of 24.3 grams, it is capable of passing to a depth of 1.5 to 2 meters. It is noteworthy that the internal filler of this bait are balancing balls, and also that it is suitable for various types of fishing. As for prey, pike is usually caught on Draga from Tsueki. Price – 6 dollars.
What is the advantage of the TsuYoki brand
A completely natural question arises. There are expensive and high-quality Japanese models. But there are Chinese copies of them, which are significantly cheaper. Which one should you buy for successful fishing? But what to do if you have money for both this and this option? The answer here will be ambiguous. Of course, branded wobblers are a good choice.
But what to do if:
- In Japanese products, the manufacturer usually focuses on marine mirror colors, but our pike prefers “acid” colors? And these colors are supplied by TSUYOKI.
- Although Chinese manufacturers make copies, are these copies of such high quality that they are practically indistinguishable in appearance from the original?
- Is the coating strength of a Chinese clone wobbler much higher than that of the original Japanese product? For example, after a day of intense fishing, the TSUYOKI wobbler will retain its coating, but stains may well appear on the original Japanese product.
- Has the Chinese manufacturer recently been using stronger hook models than before? And this was one of the main complaints about the first TSUYOKI models.

Reviews from fishermen
- DUST-115 SP is excellent, my favorite wobbler! Works great for animations, not stubborn at all, flies well.
- TSUYOKI wobblers are actually my workhorses.
- I have this wobbler!!! I'll share my impressions. Externally, it repeats its ancestor in detail, the quality of its coating and color features are very good (and I had a good opportunity to choose from this entire line). In my opinion, the tackle is working without a doubt, especially since it has been caught well by many!
- TsuYoki LOOM 40S - Not bad. Its undoubted advantages: good coverage, quite affordable price, excellent catching. But there are also disadvantages: it has bad, weak hooks.
- Wobbler manufacturer TsuYоki has nothing to be ashamed of. Because the quality is quite high. It is pleasant to the touch, quite strong plastic. Good painting and a good selection of colors, sharp and strong WMC tees, a large range of models.
Despite the fact that this company copies branded products, its products are of quite high quality and sometimes made better. Than the original product.
Reviews
Vladimir, Novgorod:
Last year I tried Tsuyoki Chance 130 SP. I’m happy, the 13 cm wobbler weighs 21.5 g, is painted with high quality, and does not peel off. The hooks are sharp and have an anti-corrosion coating. I was pleased with the casting range and accuracy; the correct body geometry and a small blade help. The light shows that there are steel balls that work not only when casting, but also create noise that attracts predators. Especially good for twitching, but you can also troll. I took a couple of pike on it up to 3 kg, tried it at the end of November, waiting for the season. I also bought a Chance 130F with less weight, I’ll go to the lake and leave a review.
Semyon, Cherepovets:
I bought a Sprat 105F minnow for twitching, and I’m generally happy with it. The manufacturer lied a little about the size, instead of the stated 105 mm, in reality I have 95 mm, weight 8 g. For such a price everything is fine with the wobbler, I only changed the winding rings. For me they are a bit rough, but that's not for everyone. The bait is floating with a depth of 0.5 meters, very good for fishing in thickets. The game during twitching is impeccable, very catchy, but the toothy one scratched the paint significantly. Due to the price, you can buy several colors of the same model at once, and this is an advantage for such a Chinese.
Arkady, Pskov
I buy the Mason series from this manufacturer. There are definitely a dozen. Well done, Chinese, there are minimal complaints about their wobblers. In some places the size or weight differs slightly from the original, in others the rings are too big. But with minimal modifications, they are very successful on reservoirs. Show good game and catchability. For the Japanese, not everything is perfect either, they do more for the sea, but the Chinese have a market for Russia and have more colors for our water. I don’t encourage everyone to buy Tsuyeki, but I decided to express my opinion.
